Counterpoint: copying every single page of every book and making it searchable can be fair use. It just takes only 10 years of litigation and appeals to determine that. See Authors Guild v. Google. https://www.eff.org/document/ruling-appeals-court https://www.eff.org/document/ruling-appeals-court Also, the "TV Eyes" system that recorded television newscasts and made the searchable was fair use, though certain features were found to be infringing. See https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/08/dangerous-decision-fair-use-tveyes-case https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/08/dangerous-decision-fai.... Point is, the law is hardly clear cut and never is with new technologies. Without someone willing to take a risk and develop a potentially infringing technology we would never have had VCRs, MP3 players, YouTube.... I applaud the creators for making an incredibly useful resource and I hope if they do face legal threats they get a zealous pro-bono defense from someone like the EFF or Larry Lessig.
